DRGN neurite alignment on patterns with constant periodicity (50 μm) but varying amplitude. A) DRGN neurite alignment (mean±SE) increases significantly with increasing channel amplitude (*p < 0.005, one way ANOVA). DRGN neurite alignment was measured as a ratio of unaligned length per neurite length, [(TL−AL)/TL]. B) Dissociated neurite growth from DRGNs on a pattern with 8 μm deep channels and a 50 μm periodicity. DRGN primary neurites and their branches strongly align to the pattern direction on 8 μm deep channels compared to the spread of neurite growth near the cell body on 3 μm deep channels (Fig 4C).
